    Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate Under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street

    REPORT FOR ACTION Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street Date: August 7, 2020 To: Toronto Preservation Board Toronto and East York Community Council From: Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning Wards: Ward 11 - University-Rosedale SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the property at 100 College Street under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act and include the property on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register. The Banting Institute at 100 College Street, is located on the north side of College Street in Toronto's Discovery District, on the southern edge of the Queen's Park/University of Toronto precinct, opposite the MaRS complex and the former Toronto General Hospital. Following the Nobel-Prize winning discovery of insulin as a life- saving treatment for diabetes in 1921-1922, the Banting Institute was commissioned by the University of Toronto to accommodate the provincially-funded Banting and Best Chair of Medical Research. Named for Major Sir Charles Banting, the five-and-a-half storey, Georgian Revival style building was constructed according to the designs of the renowned architectural firm of Darling of Pearson in 1928-1930. The importance of the historic discovery was recently reiterated in UNESCO's 2013 inscription of the discovery of insulin on its 'Memory of the World Register' as "one of the most significant medical discoveries of the twentieth century and … of incalculable value to the world community."1 Following research and evaluation, it has been determined that the property meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, which sets out the criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, for its design/physical, historical/associative and contextual value.

    Ministry Personnel Pub Nights by Mike Perreault Some of Us Have Been Talking About Experimenting with a Regular Gathering of Ottawa Area Ministry Personnel

    1 Ministry Personnel Pub Nights by Mike Perreault Some of us have been talking about experimenting with a regular gathering of Ottawa area ministry personnel. The second Tuesday of each month (Ottawa's former Presbytery night) seemed like a natural fit. We thought a more-or-less central location close to the 417 with ample parking would work to start. We came up with Liam Maguire's on St. Laurent near Innes. I contacted them and made a reservation for 12 (seemed like a good number!) for Tuesday, August 13th at 7:30 PM. I can commit to being there for the first meet-up and hope to see some of you there. Visit the gallery of EOORC churches now on the website.

    Toronto's Waterfront Is New Destination for Mars Innovation

    Toronto’s Waterfront is new destination for MaRS innovation hub TORONTO, September TK, 2018 — MaRS Discovery District together with partner University of Toronto today announced that they are finalizing a lease with Menkes Developments Ltd. (“Menkes”) for a new 24,000-square-foot hub at Toronto’s Waterfront Innovation Centre. Already under construction,The Waterfront Innovation Centre will deliver critically needed office space for Toronto’s fast-growing innovation community in close proximity to the city’s thriving Discovery District. “As Toronto becomes a premiere destination for global talent, venture capital and tech corporations, demand for space is at an all-time high. It’s imperative that we develop new innovative and entrepreneurial hubs in communities across the city,” says Yung Wu, CEO of MaRS. “The Waterfront Innovation Centre is the next destination for the city’s growing innovation sector — one that will further solidify Toronto’s standing as a premiere tech centre.” When opened in 2021, the Waterfront Innovation Centre, developed by Menkes in partnership with Waterfront Toronto will create approximately 400,000 square feet of office space and accomodate an estimated 3,000 workers. “The University of Toronto is excited to once again partner with MaRS to help expand Toronto’s rapidly growing innovation scene on the city’s waterfront,” says Meric Gertler, U of T President. “It’s a winning combination — MaRS’s world-class suite of innovation programming and expert support for entrepreneurship with the incredible depth and range of U of T’s globally renowned researchers.” “Toronto is experiencing its lowest office vacancy rate ever (three per cent), making the Toronto office space the most in-demand market in North America,” Wu says.

    To Discovery District 101 COLLEGE STREET: at the HEART of CANADA's HEALTH CARE HERITAGE

    From "The Ward" to Discovery District 101 COLLEGE STREET: AT THE HEART OF CANADA'S HEALTH CARE HERITAGE A Heritage Report for MaRS (Medical and Related Sciences Discovery District) 149 College Street, Suite 501, Toronto, ON, M5T 1P5 By Christopher J. Rutty, Ph.D. HEALTH HERITAGE RESEARCH SERVICES http://www.healthheritageresearch.com August 2002 On April 11, 1911, at the cornerstone ceremony of the new Toronto General Hospital at 101 College Street, the Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario made a significant comment. "The recovery of over ten acres of land in the College-Elizabeth-Hayter-Christopher section of the historic 'Ward,' and the devotion of so large an area to the uses and requirements of a hospital is nothing short of an event in the history of this city." Over 90 years later, and after many significant medical events within the walls of Toronto General Hospital, particularly the main College Wing, the Lieutenant-Governor's words MaRS - 101 College St Health Heritage Report Page 2 Rutty, C.J. - August 2002 are again relevant to a significant new phase in the history of the former "Ward" site. The new mission will be very much entwined with the 101 College Street building, to be called the "Heritage Building," as the centerpiece of the redeveloped site known as the "Discovery District for Medical and Related Sciences," or simply MaRS. Since its official opening on June 18, 1913, and through most of the 20th century, the TGH College Wing stood at the centre of a dynamic discovery district not unlike the new "Discovery District" envisioned by MaRS.

It was shared with participants for review before being finalized. Background Toronto 360 (TO360) is an effort to help people find their way by making streets, neighbourhoods, and the city more legible. Following the successful completion of a pilot project in the Financial District in 2015, the City began a five-year city-wide rollout in 2017. This rollout is focused on developing a map database that will support the future production of wayfinding maps. In Year One of the rollout, the TO360 team is developing the map database in an area bounded roughly by Lake Ontario, Royal York Road, St. Clair Avenue, and Warden Avenue. In
